Who designed this underworld dungeon?.

Chapter 646 Cangyin's Inner World
"Yay! I got food from Lord Godwin again!"

Cangyin Underground City, the City Lord's Room.

Heines jumped for joy as she held the reply Gong Qiying had just sent, feeling as if she had been starving for a long time and had finally eaten something good.

These are all the fruits of their hard work!
She glanced at the map that had been delivered to her from the other side. When her eyes fell upon the particularly sinister and gloomy map, along with the accompanying terrifying monsters, goosebumps rose all over her body, and she shuddered violently as if she had been stimulated.

"This is the taste, this is the feeling, it's amazing!"

After spinning around in place a few times, Hynes immediately opened her own dungeon's micro-model, pondering where to add this map called "Deep Nest".

Wait a minute, she didn't even hesitate before deciding to add it?
That's for sure; Haynes's life motto is to just do it first and think about it later!

To this day, the Cangyin Underground City appears to be no different from before.

The first half is as beautiful as a garden, the second half is inhabited by tree fairies, and there is an additional, deeper section where the plants are stronger but the rewards are also better.

Everything seems unchanged, but that's only on the surface.

Recently, among the adventurers in Spring City, the information about the Azure Dungeon has gradually taken a turn for the worse.

People used to talk about Cangyin Dungeon in a lighthearted tone, as if they were discussing a theme park. But now, it has become more serious, and people treat it as a dungeon that needs to be taken seriously.

This is all because the Azure Dungeon has a new mechanism.

During the latter part of the exploration, there is a certain probability that you will fall out of this world from a random location.

They fell into a map that no one had ever seen before.

The maps have many names: Path of Suffering, Fungal Wasteland, Fog Canyon.
The art style of these maps is so different from the previous Cangyin Dungeon that it makes you feel like you've stumbled into the Otherworld!

However, these places somehow manage to connect with the "plants" that Cangyin Underground City is known for, making it impossible to simply say that these things were added out of thin air.

The monsters on these maps are all different, but they all have a similar art style, consisting of either living plants or creatures associated with plants—insects.

When faced with insects as tall as or even taller than a person rushing towards them, no adventurer would fail to feel a chill.

These maps are undoubtedly more difficult, directly comparable to the deep maps where hybrid plants gather, and the atmosphere is even more frightening than the deep maps, which adventurers directly regard as dangerous places.

But perhaps it is precisely because of the danger that the rewards have also increased. Putting aside all the miscellaneous items, the probability of obtaining better hybrid versions of the plants that people are drawn to in this dangerous map has increased.

Therefore, adventurers naturally emerged who would wander around the Azure Dungeon specifically looking for "hidden maps".

In fact, the changes that occurred in the Cangyin Dungeon even silenced a group of people, namely those guys who quit the Sien Dungeon because they were too weak and went to other dungeons to make a living, yet they still complained every day that the local dungeons weren't strong enough.

Judging from the current attitude of adventurers, if a survey were conducted regarding the difficulty of the Azure Dungeon...

At least not many people will be so bored as to fill in "very simple" anymore.

"Not only did I maintain my livelihood, but I also achieved my dream of being revered by adventurers, all thanks to Lord Godwin!"

However, before Hynes could be happy for long, the dragons set their sights on her.

Her proud army was crushed and unable to lift its head in front of those giant dragons with abnormal physical abilities!
There is no dynamic balance in Cangyin Dungeon. She has to manually adjust the strength of the monsters herself. She is still unsure how to adjust the strength of the monsters when facing the dragon. If they are too weak, she can't win. If they are too strong, she wastes her mental energy. She is still very conflicted.

During the time she was struggling with this decision, the dragons started using the Cangyin Underground City as their dining hall.

"While I'm very grateful for the spiritual energy they provided, to be honest, since they never died once while I was here and took away so many plants, the spiritual energy I received wasn't actually that much."

If you just throw a bunch of Doom-shrooms or similar plants at once, you should be able to take down a few dragons, right? But Hynes has made up her mind not to use monsters that are so powerful they're like cheat codes, otherwise it would ruin the adventurers' experience and discourage repeat customers.

"I understand now about the Deep Nest that Lord Godwin sent. It's a way to use the terrain to deal with the dragons. I see!"

"Those dragons will definitely come again tomorrow, so let's use them to test it out first, and then add the map tonight."

"Having taken so many plants from me, it's time for a dragon to give me its first blood."

Looking at the miniature model of her own dungeon, Hynes imagined what tomorrow would bring and couldn't help but cup her face and laugh happily.

------------

“Those plants wander around, so it’s easier to catch them with these Poké Balls. Take these for now, and ask me for more if you need more later.”

"When you see plants like chili peppers or cherries, remember to walk around them, because those things can really hurt when they hit your dragon."

"We should only pick plants that we haven't eaten before and that look delicious. We can skip the ones we've already tried." On the way to Kasuga City, Abe explained the precautions for this "hunt" to Fudolin, who was looking eager to try it out.

As he spoke, he suddenly smiled and muttered to himself:
"To be honest, that underground city doesn't pose much of a threat to us, so we don't need to be too careful."

Besides the two dragons, Moore and two or three other young dragons, some even younger than Abe, also went along, making it seem like a picnic.

Fudolin blended in perfectly, completely unnoticeable; she was just an ordinary dragon in human form.

Don't Abe and the others find this strange?

It seems I really didn't think in any strange directions.

When Abe saw Fudolin, he felt that her face was very unfamiliar; he had never seen her in the tribe before.
So it must be from the quadrupedal dragon's side!

He didn't sense any of the classic "strange aura" from Fudolin at all; it was just the aura of a dragon. If you looked closely, it might seem a little strange, but it wasn't something worth getting to the bottom of.

Mole, a four-legged dragon, went through a similar mental journey to Abe, believing that Fudorin was from the two-legged dragon side.

Fudorin was also deliberately hiding, so much so that both bipedal and quadrupedal individuals were misled.

"This kind of trip is not bad as a form of entertainment~" she thought to herself. After returning from the Blood Dynasty, he really needed to find a place to release the pressure.

Otherwise, she would dream of the incredible countdown challenge where Meng Gefei was shouting "zero zero zero" in the sky, and her anger kept her from sleeping at all.

After flying for a short while, the Cangyin Underground City came into view.

Everyone sped up and landed directly in front of the portal. Without any instructions or preparations, they went straight inside, looking quite relaxed.

The local residents were already used to them descending from the sky, because there were dragons with human bodies among the group, so people knew from the beginning that these were dragons.

All the surprise, excitement, and curiosity about these legendary creatures have faded with time. The only remaining attitude of the local inhabitants towards these dragons is:

"Hey everyone, remember to come to my tavern for a meal and drinks! We have amazing food!"

These dragons with huge appetites are considered a cash cow by the locals. After coming out of the dungeon, Abe and his companions would often go to the local tavern for a big meal. People have long regarded them as gods of wealth.

Dragons aren't as stingy as they are in fairy tales.

The feeling of being transported vanished instantly, replaced by a refreshing breeze and a view of beautiful greenery.

They had now entered the Cangyin Underground City.

Abe and his companions didn't even glance at the surrounding garden-like natural scenery, flying straight into the depths, because the probability of encountering hidden maps there was higher, and the scenery here wasn't particularly appealing to them.

Fudolin looked around at her surroundings. The style here was completely different from that of the Sien Dungeon. It had a very soothing atmosphere and would probably be very popular with people who wanted to relax.

But the flowers and plants looked so boring, she shook her head and followed Abe and the others, and soon they passed through the thick vegetation and reached the depths.

The hidden map appeared exceptionally quickly this time. Moore's feet suddenly gave way, and he plummeted downwards.

"There, everyone follow!"

Abe whistled excitedly, and everyone filed into the cave. Fudolin was the last to enter, showing great interest in the hidden map.

The moment you step inside, darkness immediately engulfs your vision.

Fortunately, dragons can generally see in the dark, so the darkness doesn't have a big impact; it just feels a bit chilly around them.

Fudoline felt herself falling continuously, as if she were falling into a bottomless abyss, and there was no stopping her.

The surrounding soil alternated between damp and dry. As she gradually fell, the darkness deepened, and thick spider webs began to appear around her, along with the debris left behind by various destroyed buildings. These elements all worked together to create the atmosphere.

"This fall took way too long. Wouldn't a human die instantly from the fall?"

Fudolin frowned, and then she quickly noticed something that made her frown even more—

Theoretically, Abe and the others should be in front of her.
Missed.

"Boom!"

With a muffled thud, Fudorin finally landed on the ground.
